The Rain and the Lightning

On last Saturday afternoon one of the
heaviest rains Of the season fell here
There was also very heavy rain here
on Sunday just after church. The
creeks around town were very full, Sc
much so that some Of the church goers
from across the creek were unable to
get home at the time. Mr.. D. w. Barre
and his daughter, Miss Veda, came near
being drowned in attempting to cross
the branch beyond Helena. He thought
he could make it without danger and
when he got in the stream his buggy
and horse were carried down stream
and the water ran up in his buggy, but
the buggy was not turned over, and the
horse being very strong brought him
out.
Mr.. - johnson, who had been in
the Stone Hills on Saturday to picnic,
was returning home late in the evening,
and when he reached the branch near
Mr.. Mike Kinard's, concluded it was too
full to cross and turned back, but was
met by Johns Brown and his son, two
colored men, who informed him he could
cross without trouble. Being anxious
to get home he returned to the creek
and drove ID with the two negroes on
board with him. When he got about
midway his horse and wagon were car
ried down stream. Mr.. Johnson jumped
out and swan to the shore. The ne
groes and wagon and horse were carried
down stream about quarter of mile.
The old negro managed to reach land,
but his son, Coleman Brown, who was
deaf and dumb, could not be found that
night. Mr.. johnson says when he got a
light he found his horse with nothing
but his head above the water, aad with
his teeth fast hold of the limb Of tree.
He got his horse out safe and came home.
His lemons, sugar and S. in paper
money that he had in his pocket he never
recovered. Next morning, Sunday, he
returned and brought his wagon home.
The dead body of Coleman Brown was
found about mile down stream. The
coroner held an inquest on Sunday and
the jury concluded it was a case Of acci-
dental drowning.
Lightning struck the A. R. P. Church
again on Sunday, the broken lightning
rod not having been fixed. Slight dam
age. Another hard rain fell yesterday
afternoon.

C corone- held an inquest
and the conclusion Of the jury was that
he died Of heart disease. He was a
good negro and we'll thought OF by
those for whom he worked.
The force of hands at work on the
railroad culvert over SCOTS creek have
removed to the lower culvert and are
now at work on that. They are await
ing the decision of the authorities as to
whether the culvert shall be entirely re-
moved and bridge put over the creek,
before they do any more work where
they first began.
There are some other improvements,
in addition to the stables now in course
Of construction, at the county jail that
the County Commissioners should have
attended to. We do not wonder that
the Grand Jury called attention to the
matter. The building is sadly in need
Of work on the inside, and there are sew
eral other things on the outside and
about the place that one only needs to
see to realize the necessity OF having
done at once. It is saving of money
to the county tc keep in repair the pub,
lie buildings belonging to the county.

BLOOD POISON.

Three years ago l contracted q blood
poison. Iapplied to a physician at once
and his treatment came near killing me.
employed an Old physician and then
went to Ky. Ithen went to Hot Springs
and remained two months, but nothing
seemed to cure me permanently, al
though temporary relief was given ME.
Ny condition grew worse and applied
to noted quacK, but did not improve.
I then used preparation which was
prescribed 'tgratis," but it contained too
much alcohol and aggravated my suffer-
ings. I then placed myself under the
treatment OF a noted Nashville physl-
clan and for time was benefited, but
by fall I returned home a ruined man
physically and financially, with but lit
tie prospects OF ever getting we'll. My
money being exhausted. did not know
what to do. In May, 1885, my mother
persuaded me to get bottle OF B. 3. B.
(pade in Atlanta) and did so to crafty
her, but to my utter astonishment I had
not finished the first bottle before every
ulcer had been healed.
To the present time ! have used five
bottles and have received more benefit
| than from all the rest combined; and
am satisfied that B. B. B. is the most
wonderful blood purifier ever before
known, and urge all afflicted young
men to try one single bottle and be con
vinced. can truly say I think it the
best medicine in the world.
Z. II. HALLERToN.

VERY NERVOUS.
For many years have been afflicted
with Rheumatism combined with some
Kidney troubles. Indigestion finally
added to my misery and I soon became
feeble and very nervous, and my whole
system was prostrated. Several physi
clans were employed and numerou
patent medicines resorted to withou
benefit. After seeing so many testimo
malls extolling the wonderful merits o
B. B. B., commenced its use and th'
effects was like magic. Rheumatic pain
ceased, my kidneys were relieved ant
my constitution improved at once, ant
I cheerfully recommend it to others whC
may be similarly afflicted.
